read some good analysis of obsession (2026) and it really confirms to me that movie is showing us how and why straight men’s fantasies of the ideal gf are horrifying. it’s not even primarily about rape or sexual coercion, although those things are there. straight men don’t know how to build a connection from genuine curiosity about another human’s experience on this earth, from mutual respect and admiration. they fundamentally cannot do that as long as they refuse to see women as people. the horror is misogyny, but the rape allegory isn't even the most horrifying part. the horror is that nikki was never a person in bear’s mind. the horror is being made into a concept, a prize, and not being allowed to be a person. bear does that to nikki, with the wish, and then the nikki entity does the same thing to him in turn.

i loved obsession’s emphasis on accountability and the fact that at every opportunity bear chooses to take none. he constantly chooses to absolve himself of blame, of consequences. he rejects ian’s implication that he’s taking advantage of nikki, he continually ignores nikki’s breaks where it’s clear she wants nothing to do with him— asking to be put out of her misery—and instead of feeling guilt or shame he’s offended. by the time he does start to feel guilty he passes that off too, blaming the people who sold the wish, and even his own misunderstanding, hiding behind his lack of ill-intention— nothing that he can be considered directly responsible for.
bear wants complete worship, a pet-like devotion, but not the responsibility that comes with it. he neglects his grandmothers cat resulting in its death, he wants nikki to be entirely dependent on him but can’t handle being that level of dependable for her. even in his method of breaking the wish, he can’t go through with it using the gun, and has to do it via pills-something more passive, because at his core bear is nothing more than a coward
anyways my fix-it scenario for nikki is that the investigation into the deaths of ian, sarah, and bear is done by someone who finds the whole thing fishy. small town detective who has an uncanny sense for when someone's telling the truth, and nikki's testimonial, no matter how odd and unrealistic, somehow seems to ring true. the girl at the heart of these deaths doesn't stop talking about a wish, a willow. that it wasn't her at all; it wasn't her. and its the weirdest thing about these crime scenes, how they always seem to have a broken stick laying about. not to mention the pile of cash laying on the floor of one of the victim's houses, counting up to a billion dollars - the most money anyone in this small town has ever seen, combined.
the other people in the town attest to the girl acting extremely oddly the days leading up to the killings; her boss says he hasn't seen her at work in weeks. the girl's body is covered with wounds and scars from self-mutilation, and the psychologist sent in by the city to evaluate her says she's experienced a deep trauma. which sure, is the case when one kills their three closest friends, but the psychologist says they think it runs even deeper.
the rest of the department wants to call it an open and shut case; she has gunpowder on her fingers, the blood of a dead girl on herself, her fingerprints on the dead girl's body. yet the detective wants to be stubborn about this one. something isn't right here at all. and the detective has never believed in magic, but something about the story this girl tells, the oddity of the crime, the witness testimonials ... it seems to suggest something else. because if the girl is telling the truth, then the worst victim of this case would be serving a life sentence, and the detective refuses to let that happen.
I think the thing that is the most disturbing to me about Obsession is just how quickly it becomes totally clear that Bear not only never loved Nikki, but that he never even liked her.
In the little time we spend with Nikki before she becomes possessed “freaky” Nikki, Obsession goes to great lengths to establish Nikki as a person.
In just the first 15 minutes of the film, we learn that Nikki loves writing, she’s laid back, and that she cares very deeply for others. We see that she’s funny, she likes to gently tease her friends and joke around. She has ambition and wants to pursue her writing seriously. She has her own goals and thoughts and opinions.
She’s also characterized very well by her wardrobe, how she talks, her body language and expressions (courtesy of Inde Navarrette’s absolutely STUNNING and brilliant performance).
In a VERY short amount of time, the audience is given a VERY clear picture of Nikki’s personality and usual behavior.
Which makes her “transition” into “Freaky” Nikki all the more horrific when Bear makes his wish.
Because even if we give Bear some grace, and acknowledge that he couldn’t have known that the One Wish Willow would do what it did, and even if we treat his kissing her on the first night she comes over as morally grey (although in my opinion he absolutely did take advantage of the fragile mental state he believed her to be in), there is no way to excuse Bear blatantly ignoring that Nikki changes so drastically from the person Bear claims to be in love with.
After the wish, Nikki starts speaking differently and using a higher pitched voice, she starts dressing completely differently and wearing more traditionally “feminine” clothing. She suddenly drops her plan to quit working at the music store and pursue writing, she stops showing any care towards her other friends and the people in her life. She defers to Bear in every situation, with the only exception being any time Bear shows any sign of moving away from her emotionally (or physically).
After the wish, Nikki becomes a completely different person.
And Bear does not care or show any concern regarding this at all.
Everything that makes Nikki who she is, everything that makes Nikki, Nikki, is just gone after Bear uses the One Wish Willow.
And Bear couldn’t be happier.
We get a whole montage of Bear and “Nikki” as a “happy couple” hanging out together and ignoring everyone around them.
It’s not until Bear starts seeing actual consequences to his wish, such as “Nikki” causing a scene on their date or feeding his dead cat to him, that he begins to worry about her behavior.
And even then—EVEN THEN!!!!—Bear STILL adamantly refuses to accept that Nikki is not behaving rationally or how she used to in any way. While he eventually acquiesces to canceling his wish, he first tries to just “alter” it to make it so Nikki still loves him, but is just less intense.
He would rather use “Nikki” to satisfy his own desires and ego.
If Bear loved Nikki, hell, if he even just LIKED her for who she is, he would be horrified by “freaky” Nikki. He would have recognized and acknowledge extremely early on in their relationship, that something was deeply wrong. He would know that the woman he was with was not Nikki.
But Bear would rather have a bootleg version of Nikki that he can feel validated by, than have an actual relationship of any kind with the real Nikki.
He does not love Nikki. He does not even like her.
He likes the idea of Nikki. He likes the image of Nikki that he’s constructed of her, the image of her that only exists in his head.
He likes the fantasy of what Nikki would provide to him emotionally and physically.
From the beginning of the film, Obsession shows us exactly who its villain is. Nothing that “Freaky” Nikki does horrifies me as much as Bear’s treatment of Nikki and his refusal to see her as an actual person with autonomy.
For me that’s the most disturbing element of Obsession. That the people you trust the most and care about may be so obsessed with the version of you they’ve created in their mind that they’ll actively ignore your personhood and autonomy.
God. Obsession is so fucking good. I love film. I love cinema. Thank you Inde Navarrette. Thank you Curry Barker. Film of the year, if god hates horror fans why do we keep winning.
Bear saying that Nikki would "hate" citrine. Citrine, which is sunshine and remarkable healing. Citrine, which supports emotional well-being, stimulates clarity, and promotes creativity. A crystal which is believed to dispel negative energies. To replace them with joy and optimism. Balance. Harmony. Vitality. Everything he refused to give her.

the longer I sit with obsession the more empathy I start to feel for entity!nikki. this creature that was created solely to love one person with this all-encompassing intensity that needed to be stronger than anything anyone felt in the entire world. entity!nikki whose entire world was just one single focal point; she'd do anything for bear to love her. she didn't know anything when she came into existence, but she was willing to do anything to get this man to fall for her.
it must have been equally terrifying for her as it was for the real nikki to have someone else fight for control over what she perceived as her body. the scene where she's sobbing in the corner, terrified of her dreams is now more sad than terrifying to me. real nikki, who has just been raped by her once best friend hurting so badly that it seeps into entity!nikki's nightmares. entity!nikki who doesn't understand why the thing she wanted so badly is causing her so much pain. why she can't bring herself to lie in bed next to the man who is the center of her world.
and the worst part is bear doesn't even seem to like her. she's trying so so hard; she made a lovely memorial for his dead cat, she waited for him to come home all day without moving an inch, she made sure to be the most doting girlfriend at the party, and he's not pleased by any of it. he seems disturbed and angry and scared and she has no idea what to do to make it better. to make it worse, he keeps asking her to behave like the original nikki but he was the one who wished for her!! she can't be like nikki because nikki was simply not capable of loving bear even a fraction of how much she does!
she can't seem to reconcile it; he wanted her so badly he conjured her into reality and now he doesn't want her anymore. she doesn't know what to do. she tries everything. she obsesses over him, she threatens to hurt herself, she gets rid of that bitch sarah who keeps distracting him and trying to steal him away, and then dresses in her clothes for good measure and he still doesn't want her.
and then finally in a fit of desperation, she makes the wish and for one beautiful moment its all perfect. he's finally looking at her the way she looks at him. and then he's dead and she's lost everything.
her entire existence, from the moment of her conception to her death was painful, and confusing, and so very sad.
